Fabrice Martinez Chut! – Rebirth Reverse (2018) [FLAC 24bit/88,2kHz]

Fabrice Martinez had not yet revealed everything in «Rebirth», previous album from his quartet Chut ! released in Mai 2016 by the label ONJ Records. The group from this flamboyant trumpet player is coming back in spring 2018 with album «Rebirth Reverse». «Rebirth» and «Reverse» share the same harmonic DNA but the musical color is very different. This double album features two antagonistic versions of each track. Whereas the very electro «Rebirth», built in 2016 in the Ferber studio, got remastered to fit vinyl constraints and analogic warmth, «Reverse», the new fully acoustic opus, took advantage of live recording within the comfortable volume of a chapel. Taking advantage of the superb and natural reverb that the chapel provided, the double bass, the piano, the drums and the bugle resonate with a unique tone. Throughout this aerial narrative, the album features the unerring rythmic duo Bruno Chevillon – Éric Echampard, and the knowing piano of Fred Escoffier. As for Fabrice Martinez, the master continues to blow hot and cold through the brass – exclusively using a bugle in «Reverse» – and to impose a firmly nonstandard character.
